Are you green?

Why recycle something nature can renew? Can you even recycle water? I need some explanation here.

After reading this, I would have to agree that recycling paper is better.

That's a good idea.

Don't feed the troll Cloud.

He's not a troll - he's a comic.
he's genuinely contributing to the cellar community, just not necessarily staying entirely on-topic.

Ha, thanks, I'm no troll. Dealt with those fuckers on other forums, I'm glad there's none here... I just have an aversion to hippies. I eat steaks just for the purpose of spiting them. But here, yay Earth!

don't be bigoted. hippies eat steaks, too.

Poser.

You were, no doubt, trying to get laid by a hippie chick. I know all about that, trust me.

It's true She married my best friend.

[Dingleschmutz]

Yeesh, bad pic of her... But hey, same pose... Think 'hotter version of Tina Faye'

[Dingleschmutz]

More earth day pics!

[Dingleschmutz]

Yay earth!

Ok, I actually stopped caring after 2006...

(Actually, I never cared, I'll be dead by the time it affects the planet)

Yes you can recycle water.
Water reuse is a way to turn septic into either drinkable or groundwater for your yard. This is actually great if you have septic inspections because people with these types of systems usually pass because it insures that no septic water seeps into the groundwater and a proper leech fiield. It doesn't take that much energy, just microbiotic bugs. I think it's fascinating. Of course my husband does this for a living so naturally I would.

See Fuji systems, the slud*ehammer etc. Water recycling can be done on larger scales with very little energy consumption. That is the way they are designed and their selling point. They can also be used at your business like rest. etc. to clean your grease traps or home. Governments are going to start using the small scale systems to create larger systems for areas that have trouble even getting water, or water that is not potable. They are going to start selling plants to 3rd world areas at a price point (loan) so they will be able to then, sustain themselves.

Here's a water recycler for septic tanks...It's better than a tank oozing with crap. Cleans up your shit...and Tom Cruise's apparently.

Not everyone has great access to potable water. Not like we do here...it's going to become even more scarce for lots of states even in the US and worse...the people who can't afford to even waste it.

Nature can't renew septic water. lol! Silly schmutz. Some of it is full of human disease.

I like their tag line: Nature called. We answered.
